Network Providers

Broadband networks need users. Service subscribers generate the revenues needed to support the network investments, whether your network is municipal, utility operated, or a private ISP. Service demand and revenue is critical, whether directly as a retail provider or indirectly as a wholesale or open access provider.

Making the investment in high-quality broadband networks is a significant undertaking and, whether you are motivated my profit or economic development, or both, that investment needs to be recovered over time. That means paying users and a subscriber base that grows and stays over time – to the point that network operations are financially sustainable.

Marketing speed and reliability only goes so far. Essentially this is marketing “features”. People need to understand the benefits that speed and reliability gives them, which in turn drives demand for broadband. Beyond simply internet access, broadband is about digital transformation for peoples’ lives and how we do business and thrive in the community.

Network providers who actively help potential users clearly understand the benefits not only stimulate demand for their services, but they also create a deeper customer relationship that increases “stickiness” and reduces customer churn – increased service uptake and improved network sustainability.

Public utility networks, including those that provide fiber infrastructure on a wholesale basis, also ultimately need consumer demand that drive retail services and network utilization. Public utilities have a unique responsibility to their communities in facilitating the availability of broadband services and that community access is sustainable.
